Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day: Whenever we see the word “Beware” in the Bible, we may be sure that there is something to beware of. The point here to note is, that our times of prosperity are times of danger. I remember that Mr....
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein; and when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied; then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of...

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint; I cannot but pause as I recollect my own passage through “that great and terrible wilderness, where there was no water.” When a soul is under conviction...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end; and thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. We must not say this either about temporal or spiritual wealth. If we have grown in grace,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth. But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day. And it shall be, if thou do at all forget the LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall...

As the nations which the LORD destroyeth before your face, so shall ye perish; because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Because ye would not be obedient unto the voice of the LORD your God.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release. And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth aught unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD’S release. What a wonderful title for it, “the LORD’S release”!
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release; How was a man to pay when he did not sow or reap during the Sabbatical year? The foreigner did not observe the year of rest; consequently he was bound to pay, and it was only fair that he should do so; but for the Israelite, who carried...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Save when there shall be no poor among you; If there were no poor, then there would be no need for this law.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
For the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it: only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day. For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: That little clause, “as he promised...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee. If God’s people had done his will, they would have been like their language; it is observed of the Hebrew by some, that it borrows nothing from other tongues, but lends many words to various languages.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother: but thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth. Beware that there be...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto. For the poor shall never cease out of the land: They would have done so, they might have done so, if the rule of God had been kept;...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land. See how God calls them, not “the poor,” but “thy poor” and “thy needy.” The Church of God should feel a peculiar property in the poor and needy, as if they were handed over, in the love of Christ to his people, that they...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee. He might be under an apprenticeship of servitude for six years; but the seventh year was to be a year of rest to him, as it was a year of release to debtors, and of rest to the land.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty: To begin life again with nothing at all in his pocket.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him. Who would think of finding such a law as that on the statute book? Where is there such a law under any governor but God? The Theocracy would have made a grand government...
